A family and community led babysitting co-op portal with local groups across the world, with the most groups in the US, Canada, and Australia.
Babysitting cooperatives (or coops) are community-based groups of parents who swap childcare services with one another. Instead of exchanging cash, members simply exchange sitting for sitting. Coops make sure everything nets out equitably by tracking points. You get points when you sit for someone else, and you spend points when others are sitting for you. The Sanchezs can sit for the Browns, the Browns can sit for the Kims, and the Kims can sit for the Sanchezs. Because you are part of a group, you never have to worry about reciprocating directly with those sitting for you - eventually, it all gets around.
